After recent... issues with our local 'fandom pest', I've decided to take the necessary action of changing the join setting to the group. All new members applying to the group will need to be accepted by a vote from now on.
I decided to set the join setting this way so as not to penalise you, the already existing members. It was either screen new members or change the folder settings to needing to wait on approval before submissions could be accepted. This wouldn't affect the many members who are currently Contributors but it would have affected other Members and since the members of this group are awesome and seem to do the right thing, I figured screening new members was the best thing to do.
This way, hopefully we will avoid future unpleasantness in our group.
This all being said, new members will always be welcome!

'And One to Grow On'
Wow! Just wow! I don’t believe it. I’ve been writing this story on and off for so long now! Started posting it in 2014, in fact as my first story after 8 years of not writing (not counting that piece of garbage drabble I did before this XD) and my first real TMNT story and as of tonight, I only have one scene left to write for it! Of course, this is only one story in the series but still! That’s huge for me! Over the years, I’ve written numerous side stories for the series, had two long running sides to it - 'AOtGO' being the 2k3 side of the story and 'Aftermath' being the 2k12 side and a bridging story 'The Situation' tying the two together. The series is a long way from being over as I have plenty of plans for futures stories in this crossover multiverse but yeah, only one scene left to write. It feels good and weird! In these last three weeks in particular, I've done a lot of jumping around between my stories, jumping between working on 'How Much is that Turtle in the Window' (I
Turtle Tech Discussion Time
So as we all know, Donatello is the tech guy of our beloved Turtles. What, however, if he is not around for some reason? Who steps up then? Mikey, Leo, Raph, all three have qualities which make a person shudder to think of for touching both known and unknown tech but still, what if there is no choice? Out of the three, someone has to do it. Who would you choose and why? XD I certainly have my thoughts but I'm kinda curious as to yours so I'd love to bounce thoughts and ideas. Btw, while I am pretty inactive on the awful new DA now (I do pop my head on from time to time in case anyone messages) I have been active writing and posting stories on FFNet and AO3 for a year now with updates nearly every week, as always under the name of Zelgadis55 and I also have a tumblr with that same name. I miss the engagement with people on DA though but yeah... I just don't like the new version of the site. Well, we'll see, maybe I'll cave and try posting here again. In the meantime, I really would
Moving On (because DA is just too hard)
I'm very sorry about my lack of activity on DA and unfortunately, I can't see myself coming back. I really dislike the new site. It's too hard to navigate and too hard to post. Not to mention I dislike the appearance and how convoluted it has become. I might pop on from time to time but I won't be posting here for the foreseeable future. However, that said, I *am* continuing to write (slowly) and have in fact been posting regularly. I've posted updates to 'AOtGO' and 'Aftermath' and been regularly posting updates to 'Sekai no Owari' and a new story 'How Much is that Turtle in the Window' which is a Mikey-centric (big surprise, haha) story - Summary: Bradford has always blamed Michelangelo for his misfortunes and especially for his mutation so when he manages to capture the young ninja, he's going to make sure he knows exactly what it's like. 2k12 AU. - Mikey will be in for a hard time in this one and just a warning, while there won't be details, there are non-con elements in this
Lot's of bad news...
Hi, first of all, sorry for not really being very communicative of late. I've been very up and down these last few months, probably far more down than up, if I'm honest. Certainly, more than I'd like with days where I've even struggled to get out of bed and do something - I have to thank Pokemon Go for at least getting me out of the house at times.
I'm no longer employed and a week before the redundancy kicked in, my precious cat Ryuichi died... He was such a cheeky little sod, often backchatting when told no. It was so cute thatit made it hard to tell him off at times! Whenever he was outside, he always came when he was called, even if it t

Good call. I just had to make the same kind of changes to some of my groups too. It's kind of sad that it's come to having to do this.
